Question 1 of 5
A nurse is providing teaching to a client who has peptic ulcer disease and a new prescription for sucralfate tablets. Which of the following information should the nurse provide?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Take sucralfate 1 hr before meals. This is because sucralfate forms a protective coating in the stomach lining, so taking it before meals allows it to adhere to the ulcer site when the stomach is empty.
Choice A is incorrect as sucralfate does not need refrigeration.
Choice C is incorrect because sucralfate tablets should not be chewed or crushed.
Choice D is incorrect because antacids should not be taken within 30 minutes of sucralfate to avoid interference with its effectiveness.
